Once
I had a sky full of stars under the bonfire
in the realm of your arms
and
I had seen the beauty of life
even in the empty spaces of
those three words
you used to whisper into my ears.
Love is an irresistible sin;
it makes you immortal
(you neither live nor die.)
You daydream about yesterday
in the presence of tomorrow.
First love;
They told me it wouldn't last forever.
And truth wasn't discovered
until my soul drowned in the wondrous depths
of your lies.
Now,
I see my dreams floating away
with your good-byes.
Still
whenever the clouds of your thoughts
burst upon my heart,
my pillow talks to me about the promises...
you didn't keep.
